4. Instellen
Volg deze stappen om uw heggenschaar gebruiksklaar te maken:
- Monteer de paal: Connect the hedge trimmer head to the extendable pole. Ensure all connections are secure and locked into place according to the diagrams in the full manual.
- Paallengte aanpassen: Loosen the locking mechanism on the telescopic aluminum handle. Extend the pole to the desired length for your task, then securely tighten the locking mechanism. The pole can be adjusted from 1.6m to 2.5m.
- Batterij plaatsen: Ensure the battery is fully charged. Align the battery with the battery slot on the trimmer's handle and slide it in until it clicks securely into place.
- Schouderriem bevestigen: For comfortable and balanced operation, especially when extended, attach the provided shoulder strap to the designated points on the trimmer. Adjust the strap for a snug fit.
- Remove Blade Guard: Carefully remove the blade guard from the cutting blades before starting the trimmer. Always replace the blade guard when the tool is not in use or during transport.

5. Gebruiksaanwijzing
Before operating, ensure you have read the safety instructions and the trimmer is properly set up.
- De trimmer starten: With the battery inserted, press the safety lock-off button (if present) and then squeeze the trigger switch to start the motor. Release the trigger to stop.
- De hoek van de snijkop aanpassen: The cutting head can be tilted to 7 different positions. To adjust, press the release button/lever on the head, set it to the desired angle, and ensure it locks securely in place. This allows for ergonomic cutting of hedge tops and sides.
- Trimtechniek:
- For vertical surfaces, use a sweeping motion from bottom to top.
- For horizontal surfaces, hold the trimmer slightly angled (about 10-15 degrees) to ensure a clean cut and allow clippings to fall away.
- Avoid forcing the blades through thick branches. If the blades jam, immediately release the trigger and remove the battery before clearing the obstruction.
- Werken op hoogte: When using the extended pole, maintain a stable stance. Use the shoulder strap to distribute weight and reduce strain. Be mindful of overhead power lines and other obstacles.
- De trimmer stoppen: Release the trigger switch. The blades will stop quickly. Always remove the battery when finished or before making adjustments.
6. Onderhoud
Regelmatig onderhoud zorgt ervoor dat uw heggenschaar optimaal presteert en langer meegaat.
- mes schoonmaken: After each use, remove the battery and carefully clean the blades with a stiff brush to remove sap and debris.
- Bladsmering: Apply a light machine oil or blade lubricant to the cutting blades after cleaning to prevent rust and ensure smooth operation.
- Mes slijpen: Botte messen kunnen bladeren beschadigen en de motor overbelasten. Laat de messen professioneel slijpen of vervang ze als ze te bot of beschadigd raken.
- Algemene schoonmaak: Wipe down the housing of the trimmer with a damp lap. Gebruik geen agressieve chemicaliën of schurende schoonmaakmiddelen.
